Crisp Sandwiches

So doing a bit of gardening today and needed a quick snack for lunch.

Had a crisp sandwich. White bread with a good amount of butter, salt and vinegar crisps and an extra dash of vinegar for good measure!

I enjoy crisp sandwiches as an occasional snack, my children think I am disgusting!

Which side of the fence are you on?

The carbs! The vinegar! The extra vinegar! My eyes are watering just thinking about it. But whatever floats your boat. Enjoy.

There is nothing like rubbish white sliced bread, slathered in proper butter with crisps or chips.

Sadly, it doesn't work with gf bread.

Not fair is it! 😩😩

I used to work shifts in a residential home, a crisp sandwich at 11pm kept me going blush

I’m with you, Desdemona. Scrumptious. Sometimes we just have to forget the calories.

Seedy bread, thick butter and marmite crisps yum.

It flipping isn't, merlot.

I just bought a gf loaf from a local bakery. It cost £5 which is very expensive for a house brick.

Promise Quinoa and chia seed gf bread is the best I’ve found so far but it’s £3.60 for a few slices which they cheekily call a loaf!

A crisp sandwich is amazing, a taste sensation. I cannot believe there are people who have never had one, you are so missing out. It's the different textures that are so fantastic. Susan Calman recently on one of her brilliant travel shows had her first crisp sandwich and my husband and I were gobsmacked that she had got to her age having never had one.

I am old enough to be Susan Calman's mother but I have never tried a crisp sandwich. Perhaps I should, I love chip butties.

You can’t beat a good chip butty, even better if it’s made with a Scottish “morning roll” 😋 Haven’t had one or a crisp sandwich in years!

Oh for a morning roll, well fired. I have never seen them around here.
My cousin usually brings me a bag of rolls down & Scotch square sausage 😋
